Famous Impes

Famous Impes is tucked away here in Vailathur Ponmundom. It’s a quiet spot, really. Most people around here are neighbors or people we’ve known for years. We handle imports and some other bits and pieces. The building is right near the post office, so we see the mail carrier every single day. We usually have the doors open to let the breeze in because it gets stuffy inside with all the boxes stacked up. It’s not a huge operation, just a few of us trying to make things work. We spend a lot of time checking lists and making sure the numbers match up on the sheets. Sometimes things get delayed at the port, and we just have to tell folks to wait a bit. That’s just the way it goes with this kind of work. We’ve got a couple of old fans that make a lot of noise, but they help. Our coffee is always a bit too strong, but it keeps us moving through the afternoon slump. We don't have a website or anything like that, just a phone that rings more than it should. Most of the people we deal with are just regular folks from around the area. We know the truck drivers by name and usually have a bit of a chat when they drop things off. It's a simple way to run a business, but it keeps us going. We’re just happy to be part of the community here.
